What is MAP Info and MAP Service
Our MAP SERVICE, currently as beta version, is an instrument to present aggregated, joint Russian and Norwegian environmental data from the Barents Sea and adjacent sea areas as map presentations. This give you the opportunity to have a more geographic focus on some of the environmental issues shown in the joint environmental report, or broaden your knowledge on other themes that are only briefly or hardly mention in the report. New, interesting themes, will be added as soon as our joint effort bring to light aggregated, novel environmental information.
In our MAP INFO SERVICE you will find comments and metadata for shown maps, or on other themes not shown in the status report or even in the MAP Service.
You will find metadata and other information in the MAP Info Service section, and the themes are organised as for the MAP Service.
